Explain about embedded & standalone filters?difference
between them
Answer / harry
Framework Manager supports stand-alone filters and embedded
filters.
Use a stand-alone filter when you want to reuse the
expression.
You can add a stand-alone filter to one or more dimensions
or query subjects to limit the data that the query
retrieves when the filtered dimension or query subject is
used in a report, or you can include it in a package to
make it available to your users. By moving a stand-alone
filter or a shortcut to it into a folder, you can better
organize the model objects.
Use an embedded filter when you want to use a filter with
only one dimension or query subject.
You can create an embedded filter when modifying a
dimension, relational data source query subject, or model
query subject.
If you start with an embedded filter, you can later convert
it into a stand-alone expression that you can apply to
other dimensions or query subjects. Tip: Right-click the
filter expression in the Filters tab and click Convert to
Stand-alone Filter.
When you embed a filter, the data source query subject must
have a relationship to any query subject referenced by the
expression. This relationship is necessary even if the
expression references a model query subject based on the
same table as the data source query subject in which you
are embedding the expression.
To create a filter on an unrelated query subject, do one of
the following:
Ensure that there is a join path between the new query
subject and the one that contains the filter.
Base the embedded filter on a query item that is based on
the data source query subject you want.
Convert the calculation to a stand-alone filter, so that it
is not part of the query subject.
Create a stand-alone filter that references the embedded
object.

Hi, I have Cognos 7.0 Impromptu reports and these reports have been created with the Mainframe datasource. Now the business needs these reports should be upgraded but with Oracle datasource. So what's the idea, first we should migrate these reports into ReportNet? then in that case what we will do with the Impromptu Catalog? Second, suppose we need to migrate these reports into Cognos 8 (may be 8.4) then how we will do that? do we need to create a FM Model for these reports. Please advice!
